Help with a Quiz
« on: March 20, 2007, 03:55:19 pm »
Hello,
 

We are doing a quiz in work and are stuck on a few answers, can anyone here help?

 

Here are some we know:

 

6POASF - 6 percent of Africans speak French

 

8TOAO - 8 tentacles of an Octapus

 

8FIAM - 8 furlongs in a mile

 

 

The ones we are stuck on are:

 

3GOTLWF

 

240V = PDOTNG (I know it's 240v)

 

5LA2F - WJFT5000

 

4PITROI

 

Thanks in advance for any contributions!

240V = PDOTNG
240V - power drain on the national grid.
Say thanks to my b/f for that one.Smile

And possibly.
 

3GOTLWF

 

3 graces on the Liverpool water front.

 


  • The Pier Head, Liverpool, which contains three historical buildings known, since 2001/2002, as "The Three Graces" (Royal Liver Building (1908-11) by Walter Aubrey Thomas, the Cunard Building (1914-16) by Willinck & Thicknesse with Arthur J. Davis and the former offices of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board (1903-07) by Briggs & Wolstenholme with Hobbs & Thornely.)

  • I could be wrong about this one though.


    I LOVE doing things like this, they're really popular at uni right now.

    Did I say that I love Wikipedia? I think I did didn't I? Big%20smile

    I believe you, so you can shoot me wjp. Big%20smile
     

    I deserve it.

     

    I was just sort of taken over by some kind of demon and it made me do it. (honest)

     

    I really do feel bad though, does anyone else like doing things like this?

     

    Please say no. OK? Wink

    I LOVE doing things like this, but to be honest if I'd seen it in time I'd probably have at least tried to do all of them too! goldencup2007-03-20 23:30:21
